Voting is underway and here are some bold predictions…
Rog Reviews Fan Faves- Round 1

Best Female Performer: Top 2 Finishers in each bracket advance.
Best Female Performer

Bracket 1 of 8
Gauge
Gen Padova
Gia Paloma
Janine
Jesse Jane
Jessica Fiorentino
Kami
Roxy Jezel
Taylor Rain
Venus

OK, this is a pretty decent little bracket. Taylor Rain won last year so she is a good bet to finish in the top two. Gague is always a fan fave. Roxy, Gen and Gia are three of the busiest gonzo girls of the year so don’t count them out. Jesse is the big contract star in this bracket and Janine would be a dark horse. Kami is the board/net favorite and that usually carries a lot of weight.
Rog’s Prediction: Taylor & Gauge
Rog’s Vote: Gen Padova

Bracket 2 of 8
Ashley Blue
Jackie Moore
Katie Morgan
Kylie Ireland
Mandy Bright
Monica Sweetheart
Pandora Dreams
Simony
Stormy
Tiffany Minx

This is an interesting bracket that pits some great Euro talent against one another. It also has last year’s AVN winner Ashley Blue who is a very strong contender. Katie and Kylie are personal favorites, but I wonder if they (along with Tiffany Mynx) worked enough this year to really keep them fresh in the minds of the voters. Monica Sweetheart always does amazing things in this poll so she would seem to be a strong choice. Stormy is the contract babe while Pandora is the new meat.

Rog’s Prediction: Tiffany Mynx & Monica Sweetheart
Rog’s Vote: Katie Morgan (This one was tough)

Bracket 3 of 8
Laura Angel
Julia Ann
Belladonna
Ava Devine
Angie George
Candace Jackson
Bibian Norai
Renee Pornero
Sativa Rose
Aurora Snow

This bracket seems a bit top-heavy. Aurora Snow and Belladonna are two of the very best in the business, but after that there is a big of a drop off. Sativa Rose is a good rookie, Candace Jackson is highly under-rated, Ava Devine has a good fan following and Julia Ann is the contract babe of the bunch. I wouldn’t imagine any of the other girls to really make a run at the big two. On the other hand, both Bella and Aurora have traditionally under-performed in the RRFF so one never knows if there is a big upset in the making.

Rog’s Prediction: Aurora Snow & Belladonna
Rog’s Vote: Aurora Snow

Bracket 4 of 8
Cindy Crawford
Jada Fire
Hannah Harper
Kaylani Lei
Gina Lynn
Naudia Nyce
Avy Scott
Sophia
Nikki Sun
Dani Woodward

I like this bracket because it should be competitive. Avy is a personal favorite and Jada Fire always gives a great scene. Kalani Lei is very under-rated and one of the most beautiful women in porn. Cindy Crawford is a hottie and Gina Lynn seems to be quite popular with the fans. I wouldn’t rule out a run by Hanna Harper either. She is quite hot.

Rog’s Prediction: Avy Scott & Gina Lynn
Rog’s Vote: Kaylani Lei (Just barely over Cindy and Avy)

Bracket 5 of 8

Jewel De’Nyle
Jenna Jameson
Ariana Jollee
Katja Kassin
Julie Knight
Demi Marx
Sandra Russo
Selena Silver
Judy Star
Kystal Steal

I see this one as a competitive bracket as well. Newly retired Jewel De’Nyle makes one final run at this award. Jenna Jameson is a former winner (One of only two in the running this year.) Board favorites will play a big part here. Selena Silver was a runaway winner of the FF for Best Newbie last year. She was very strong in 2004. Ariana and Katja also have huge fan and board followings. This one is going to be a dogfight.

Rog’s Prediction: Jenna Jameson and Ariana Jollee (By less then 3% over Selena)
Rog’s Vote: Selena Silver

Bracket 6 of 8
Sophie Evans
Audrey Hollander
Kaylynn
Lucy Lee
Loni
Ginger Lynn
Ashton Moore
Jayna Oso
Crystal Ray
Sandra Romain

I hate brackets like this. Some of my favorite performers are here. Kaylynn, Loni, Crystal Ray, Audrey Hollander….damn. I don’t know if any of those will even make it out though. Sophie has always done well in the polls and Jayna seems to have picked up steam of late. I’m not sure if Ashton Moore or Ginger Lynn can pull the same kind of fan response that some of the others get.

Rog’s Prediction: Sophie Evans & Jayna Oso
Rog’s Vote: I so badly wanted to split this vote, but Loni in a coin flip over Kaylynn.

Bracket 7 of 8

Sunrise Adams
Mary Carey
Rita Faltoyano
Friday
Devinn Lane
Jennifer Luv
Missy Monroe
Lauren Phoenix
Mari Possa
Sandy Style

There are some good names here as well. Sunrise, Devin and Mary Carey probably don’t have quite enough to get more than one of them into the next round. For some reason everyone is crazy about Lauren Phoenix. The fan and board support for her makes her almost certain to go far. That could leave cuties like Jennifer Luv and Mari Possa out in the cold. Missy Monroe is very likely the girl who will join Lauren in the next round.

Rog’s Prediction: Lauren Phoenix & Missy Monroe
Rog’s Vote: Jennifer Luv by a nose over Mari Possa (They are both under-rated y’all)

Bracket 8 of 8

Jessica Darlin
Devon
Bobbie Eden
Isabell Ice
Katsumi
Katrina Kraven
Melissa Lauren
Francesca Le
Lucy Thai
Flower Tucci

Jessica Darlin always does well in these polls. She won the first Best Newbie and always advances. I would pencil her in for one of the slots. Beyond that it is very tough. Bobbie Eden and Melissa Lauren are very beautiful and deserving of second round status. Lucy Thai is one of the strongest performers in the business though I suspect she won’t poll as well as she should. Katsumi has good fan support and Katrina Kraven is one of those with completely mysterious board support. I expect her to find her way into the next round.

Rog’s Prediction: Katrina Kraven & Jessica Darlin
Rog’s Vote: Flower…cuz she’s my girl. (Sorry Lucy I’ll get you in the RRCC
